junkyardjeff Posted October 18, 2020 Posted October 18, 2020 I am going to take the 71ish MPC Chevy step side long bed and make it a 3/4 ton but I want a truck 4 speed for it so was there ever a kit that had one or are there any made in resin.
NOBLNG Posted October 18, 2020 Posted October 18, 2020 (edited) Olson Brothers makes a nice SM465 and NP205 t/c. https://www.resincastmodelparts.com/store/Other-c42971920 The AMT crew chief blazer (‘71 or ‘72) has one also. Edited October 18, 2020 by NOBLNG

As Greg pointed out, get the engine and trans out of the AMT Blazer kit and you will have the small block and truck 4 speed set up.
junkyardjeff Posted October 18, 2020 Author Posted October 18, 2020 (edited) I might try to find a parts Blazer but I am planning on using the six from the 62 Chevy II so it will look like it has a 250,this is going to be a cheap truck and will look into that Olson brothers trans.

Fabrux Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 The engine in the Blazer kit is really weirdly proportioned, almost like it is 1:22 scale or something. Bigger than the 1:25 it is supposed to be.
